What's "KITOKITO"

Toyama was the first prefecture to use a regional dialect for its airport's nickname with the hope of introducing its attractions such as fresh seafood to the world.

Fish such as yellowtail from Toyama Bay are the most delicious in winter.The airport has some restaurants that serve Toyama's fresh specialty food. Enjoy them before you leave Toyama.
